“ We always stop in here when we camp at dam site, the catfish basket is enough for 2 meals and really good, everything we've had comes out hot and fresh which is nice as most places let your grub sit out for a while and is served luke warm.........never had an issue with service...... ”
“ Awesome place to eat. The food is plentiful for the price and very delicious. Be prepared to wait for seating as it is very popular. They serve all the traditional comfort foods and have "baskets" that are spilling over with food! ”
“ Visited all the way from Michigan and can truly say you’re missing out if you don’t stop in. Sarah, our server, was kind, witty, and organized. The sweet tea was impeccable and the appetizers were far from “crappie” ! Trying to figure out how we can come here again before leaving! ”
